The Coral USB Accelerator is a USB accessory that contains a specialized ASIC (Edge TPU) for acceleration of machine learning (ML) inferencing calculations. I’ve used/tried them all, but have settled on pip, virtualenv, and virtualenvwrapper as the preferred tools that I install on all of my systems. The growth of smart and IoT devices has been huge over the past few years and represents one of the biggest areas for future technology advancement, with a projected growth rate of over 150%. With decades of experience in electronics manufacturing at a global scale, ASUS IoT will provide Coral with the resources to meet our growth demands while we continue to develop new products for edge computing.

You can run the examples the same way as the Tensorflow Lite examples, but they're using the Edge TPU library instead of Tensorflow Lite. Some of the data that are collected include the number of visitors, their source, and the pages they visit anonymously. Coral is a complete prototyping toolkit from Google, designed to allow users to build products with local AI. Its a dynamic product range adapting to many legacy systems and products as well as being prepared to design into the future.

I’ll also add that inference on the Raspberry Pi is a bit slower than what’s advertised by the Google Coral TPU Accelerator — that’s actually not a problem with the TPU Accelerator, but rather the Raspberry Pi.

Google does provide some documentation on that but it’s much more advanced, far too much for me to include in this blog post. We also learned how to install the edgetpu library into a Python virtual environment (that way we can keep our packages/projects nice and tidy).

I thought I had found a match with "Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4 Basic Expansion Board RPi Computing Module Core Board Backplane Gigabit Ethernet Networking CM4-IO-BASE-B" because I thought it would go together and now it's obvious to me that I am completely out of my depth. Reportedly, Coral will outperform even the best CPUs and can run over 100 FPS with very little overhead.Figure 7: An example of running the MobileNet SSD object detector on the Google Coral + Raspberry Pi. As you can see, MobileNet (trained on iNat Birds) has correctly labeled the image as “Macaw”, a type of parrot. Quality: The product itself is of high quality and meets all the criteria mentioned by the manufacturer.
